Bring in the reinforcements

To make sure I really understand CSS, I’ve been trying to hear the same info over and over from multiple sources outside my course.

The first place I did this was in Dave Gray’s 11 hour css course.

Then I got a book from the library.

Sam’s HTML, CSS and JAVASCRIPT

Recently, I decided to subscribe to a css podcasts.

But because this podcast has to compete with my juicy true crime shows, I wasn’t really listening to it.

Last night it was taking a while to fall asleep.

So I thought, “I know what I’ll do! I’ll listen to that CSS podcast. What could be more boring than a CSS podcast? I’ll be asleep in 5 minutes.”

So it turns out that it wasn’t boring at all and did nothing to help me fall asleep. I listened to 4 episodes. (Episodes are about 10 minutes).

The good thing is it helped me to finally understand specificity to the point that if you asked me what the specifity of anything is right now, I could tell you without looking at my notes.

During the first 4 podcasts, the hosts kept saying, “Send us your questions.”

I thought, “I hope they’re not getting down because no one is sending in questions.”

I also thought, “It’s a shame they quit this podcast because it’s really helpful.”

But who knows, maybe they said everything they had to say about CSS.

Sometimes people quit podcasts because they think no one is listening.

Then a random person at 1:00 in the morning finds that podcast to be super helpful!
